Milling Machine Honing Mandrel

Milling Machine Honing Mandrels are a type of tool used in metalworking machinery, specifically in milling machines. They fall under the supply class of Machine Tool Accessories and are part of the supply group Metalworking Machinery.

Honing mandrels are used for honing or finishing the internal surfaces of cylindrical workpieces. They consist of a mandrel body, which holds the honing stones or abrasive sleeves, and a mechanism for expanding the mandrel to fit inside the workpiece.

When using a milling machine honing mandrel, the workpiece is mounted on the machine's table, and the mandrel is inserted into the bore of the workpiece. The mandrel is then expanded to create a tight fit, ensuring stability during the honing process.

The honing stones or abrasive sleeves are then rotated and moved back and forth inside the workpiece, removing any imperfections and creating a smooth, precise surface finish. This process is commonly used for applications that require high precision and tight tolerances, such as in the automotive, aerospace, and medical industries.

Milling machine honing mandrels come in various sizes and configurations to accommodate different workpiece dimensions and specifications. They are an essential tool for achieving accurate and high-quality finishes in metalworking operations.
